Chicken breast in yoghurt tandoori sauce braised with turmeric rice

An important ingredient for this Chicken breast Courtt is tandoori powder from the Asian shop. There is also tandoori paste to buy in the supermarket, at Edeka I have seen it.

It takes for 4 people 800 g chicken breast, cut into cubes.

In addition, 500 g of yogurt, especially good tastes the 10-percent from the Turkish store.


Mix 3 tablespoons of the tandoori powder - or paste - with the yoghurt and put the chicken cubes in, preferably in a refractory form. This is the only spice in which Tandoori is already contained.

Let it marinate for the whole 1 hour, then stir again and simmer for 30 minutes, the chicken in the oven at 200 degrees.

It tastes very good bright yellow rice, which is dyed with the spice Curcuma. The powder is stirred into the cooking water with a little salt.


For 4 people are enough as a side dish 250 g of rice.

Not only the colors in this dish are very nice, the spice Curcuma is also good for the health, as Aunt Google and TheFruitAndFlowerBasket tells us.

In addition a green salad. It can hardly be faster!
